Taylor Swift's, "Blank Space"
The Lyrics:
Got a long list of ex-lovers
Why:
I couldn’t make sense of this line until I read the lyrics. That’s because of the peculiar way she’s stressing words. Instead of stressing the prefix “ex-” of “ex-lovers”, she’s stressing the preposition “of”, which wouldn’t usually be stressed.
